" The me right now who's begun thinking these things makes me nervous. I wonder if the other me would cry. This present moment is far too kind. I wonder if the other me is scared- afraid the moment will be lost or destroyed. Afraid of it ending...
See? My thoughts always go straight to that. I get so annoyed at myself for doing that, and I hate myself for it. I always want to cut that part of myself off and throw it away. I want to be a bright person who's always laughing...
I'm going to take her with me. I won't throw her away. I won't forget her. From now on, we'll be together. That's how...we'll start again. One step at a time. "
